Ran the 2011 Wall St 3M today.

This is my first NYRR event and it was well organized.

D-Tags are a nice way to track your time.

The wait for the race to start took longer than the actual race. Everyone assumed the worst - that it would rain at the 6:45p race start.

If there’s one thing I learned, it’s that eating cold apples after running rocks.

After the finish line, there was water, pretzels, and apples. Also booths with free branded merch.

Obligatory American Heart Association fundraising link. Not sure when the cutoff is, but someone said it goes through June.
